I've installed the hack, and it worked perfectly ..

But already_visited_today are not being shown except for the GUEST ..

as soon as I sign in, this info is reset !!

That sounds very strange, how can I solve it ?

This might simply be this time zone problem I already described.

It is impossible to display a "Who was online today?" list correctly for all members regardless which time zone they use on each and every board regardless which default time zone the board uses if one doesn't keep a list of members that logged in within the last 48 hours (instead of only 24 hours).

Best (and probably easiest to code) would be to make the list fully dynamic (i. e. "Who was online in the last 24 hours?"

I know that there is a dynamic "Who was online in the last 24 hours?" hack already (which works fine) but this "Who was online today?" also keeps the "Most users ever online on a day was ..." top score which I don't want to miss.

Ironically enough, this "Most users ever online on a day was ..." function is done fully dynamically (and doesn't rely on the vBulletin "Registered visitors today" stats which are not dynamic but based on the default time zone) which is absolutely awesome.

Since the author apparently doesn't support this hack anymore and because so many people have installed this hack already (all of whom have this time zone problem I described, regardless if they are aware of it or not), I wonder if some coder could convert the "Who was online today?" routines to fully dynamic "Who was online in the last 24 hours?" routines (or fix it by keeping the login entries for 48 hours and considering the member's time zone as offset from the default time zone which is, however, probably somewhat more complicated?)

Either solution would be absolutely elite and elysian, and I would make such a coder my hero of the month.

I'd like to just say hello to everyone real quick. I'm brand new to the vBulletin community so I'm fairly ignorant on how the entire systems works. Anyways I just installed this hack on 3.0.1 and it seems to pull information though it's not formatted correctly. I assume this is of course something stupid that I have done but not knowing the system any better than I do at this point I'm a bit clueless.

Anyways I'd love it if someone could give me a gentle shove in the right direction and lemme know what I should look at, attached is a screenshot of the error I get. Thanks.

*edit*

Ummm nevermind I got it fixed cut off a tag in a cut and paste. Knew it would be something stupid like that. Anyways:

I had

Code:

ref="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$userid" title="<phrase

I clipped the

I'm having problems with this hack. I have NO clue when it rolls over and I'm not sure wh it's so screwy. I've been putting off fixing it, but I really need to take care of it. at 10 am my time I see that the last time someone was online was at 6pm (meaning, the night before). What's wrong? I've done everything.

Sirius Black · #**293** 05-03-2004, 12:55 AM

Great hack man !! Installed with no problems !!

Flow Fusion · #**294** 05-03-2004, 01:29 AM

Can I please get some help with this?I can't get into my admincp? I keep getting this error message?

Invalid SQL:
INSERT INTO session
(sessionhash, userid, host, idhash, lastactivity, styleid, loggedin, bypass, useragent)
VALUES
('8e2bbc346a4fbfade4d1d6edff6ed4b6', 687, '66.65.121.38', '4b84f6b2f3e3352850e0f539b66878cb', 1083460415, 0, 1, 0, 'Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)')

mysql error: The table 'session' is full

How do I remove this hack? I also want it out of my database? What file is causing this that I need to replace?

Wifey · #**295** 05-03-2004, 06:17 AM

You need to do a couple of things to get it out of your database. You can probably just go back through the steps you took to insert it, then just change them. You should have the original files for your boards from your original download - compare the modified php files to those if absolutely necessary.

After that you should be able to get into your admincp so you can make the template modifications.

Hopefully. If that doesn't fix it you may have to do some work in php myadmin from your database.

Nope I was wondering two thing? One what if I delete this table?

And two does this look right?

Wifey · #**297** 05-03-2004, 05:51 PM

Don't delete that. That's totally separate from your hack I'm pretty sure.

Flow Fusion · #**298** 05-04-2004, 12:31 AM

So do you have any suggsetions on what file it could be that''s causing this problem?

Wifey · #**299** 05-04-2004, 02:45 AM

No but I really wish I could help you.

Have you seen that and did you try it? I'm pretty sure that's part of the original query you run, though not entirely sure about that.

I think I would just uninstall the hack. Just follow the directions you used to install it and uninstall. Then maybe try reinstalling? Try running the query again. It won't let you duplicate the query, so if it's already run correctly you'll get an error.

I really wish I knew more so I could help you!

edit: Okay, this worked for me to get the fix I needed. I uploaded the onlinetoday.php file to my admincp folder in my database and then ran it in my browser. You get a blank page but now the damn thing is finally working properly.
